Some of the server modifications in tjw's patch didn't seem to make it to SVN, and that consay superfluous newline bug was... bugging me, so I compiled a new tremded on the lolcat and made the switch earlier this evening.
It's very easy for me to do these now (I don't even need to upload anything) so if anyone has requests for alterations that had hitherto been impossible without altering server/, now is the time to say.

I also think we should do this for PT, but that's another issue entirely.

My minor todo list for /server:

Logging of rcon use is pitiful, at best, and must be improved

Common error messages (G_parseSpawns, in particular) that constantly show up on the Trem forums should be improved to say things that are useful.

This one is actually in src/game/g_spawn.c, I'm afraid, and since it usually implies you've got the wrong QVM then I doubt any fixing we could come up with would make it any better.

Could the error screens which appear, e.g. when you try to join a server, fail and return to the main menu, have something helpful that the player can act on, or are the errors too wide-ranging?

I don't know if Lakitu is referring to that at all, but it seems like it could be a useful thing to have.

There can be many causes for any type of error, although sometimes one can more likely be the actual cause than others.
